Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
Potassium channel [1]
In vitro

Amiodarone possesses an inhibitory effect on the fast sodium channel as well as on the slow calcium channel. Amiodarone also has non-competitive antisympathetic effects, and modulates thyroid function and phospholipid metabolism. Amiodarone penetrates deeply into the lipid matrix of the membrane, and is released from cardiac tissues very slowly when washed out. Amiodarone (44–88 μM) depresses Vmax of guinea pig papillary muscle without affecting the resting membrane potential, and that this Vmax inhibition is enhanced in a frequency- or use-dependent manner like Class I antiarrhythmic drugs. Amiodarone (50–88 μM) is also found to suppress the depolarization-induced spontaneous action potentials (abnormal automaticity) in ventricular muscles and in Purkinje fibers. [1]

In vivo

Amiodarone (1.25–25 mg/kg) results in a decrease in sinus rate, a prolongation of effective and functional refractory periods of the atrioventricular node, and a frequency-dependent conduction delay in the atrioventricular node and in the ventricle of anesthetized dogs. Amiodarone (50 mg/kg/day, i.p. for 3–4 weeks) results in significant decreases in the current density of iK and ito in ventricular cells without affecting iCa and iK1 densities in rabbit. Amiodarone (AM) inhibits intracellular conversion from thyroxine (T4) to triiodothyronine (T3) via 5′-deiodination (5′DI) without affecting intracellular conversion from T4 to reverse T3 (rT3). [1]
